Description
This memoir tells the story of Curtis Chin's childhood growing up as a gay Chinese American in 1980s Detroit. A safe haven for the community was Chung's Cantonese Cuisine, where people from all walks of life could gather for a warm meal. It was here that Chin came of age, learning to embrace his identity and navigating the city's challenges.
Structured around the menu of Chung's, the book is both a memoir and an invitation to step inside Chin's childhood oasis. With its vivid and moving portrayal of a bygone era, this book offers a unique glimpse into the life of a young gay ABC.
With its warm and engaging tone, Everything I Learned, I Learned in a Chinese Restaurant invites readers to share in the story of one boy's childhood and growth, and perhaps even discover something new from the secret menu.
